Quick Start

Language

Once the program has loaded, the first thing you want to do is to choose your language

preference.

• €On the Setup menu, point to Language, and then click your language choice.

English is the default language. You can choose from English, German, Italian, Spanish,

or French.

Weather Station Type

1. €On the main Weather Display window, click Control Panel, and then under Station

Settings, click Station Type & Settings.

2. €Click the tab the corresponds to the weather station equipment you have.

You might need to further define your weather station equipment or configure options

specific to the model.

COM port

Obviously, you have to connect your weather station to the computer that runs Weather

Display. On the rear of most computers there is at least one serial port connectors. Connect

an appropriate serial (RS-232) cable between the serial connector of your choice. If the

connector is labeled on your computer, note its name, usually COM1 or COM2. It is not

common for these to be labeled.

You then need to configure Weather Display to use the correct COM port corresponding to

the connector you have used.

1. €On the Setup menu, select COM Port Settings.

2. €Select the the appropriate COM port, and then click OK. The Weather Display title bar

now displays the COM port you selected.

Unfortunately, if you're not sure which COM port you're using, the trial-and-error method is

the fastest for most people. Start with COM1. If that doesn't work, then change to COM2,

then COM3, etc.

At the bottom of the window, below the time display, there are two small square boxes „

Data Received, and Data Quality. When you start Weather Display, they should be red.

When you have correctly selected your weather station and COM port, these two boxes will

appear green. It might take up to 15 seconds or more before data is received. The upper

(Data Received) box blinks each time data is received from your weather station. The

lower (Data Quality) box should remain green. If the two boxes do not respond, verify your

COM and station selections, and make sure your cables are tightly fastened on both ends.

COM port tips

COM2 is usually a 25-pin male plug, so you may need a 9-pin to 25-pin adaptor. Reset to

use COM1. Make sure if a modem is on COM4, it uses a different IRQ setting.
